I Didn't Know
I didn't know you would be leaving
So caught up in my selfish ways
You had me foolishly believing
Time was on our side
You were here to stay
How can it be that
You're somewhere else
You're somewhere no one understands
From down here
Now I'm here picking up the pieces
Little treasures that you left
Well I'll keep listening for that sound
Watching for your face in the crowd
Without you I keep tumbling down
Wandering around this ghostly town
Draw me a new map
Take me back safe and sound
I didn't know you'd be leaving
You'd be leaving us so soon
No I didn't know
I would not get to ask you
All I wanted to know
I didn't know
I find my safety now in sleeping
Where I can meet you in dreaming
Was that a symphony you played?
Is that something you really said?
Now I find a way back to you in letters and in art you made
And it's really something that you're here and not here
What a mess we all make
Well I'll keep listening for that sound
Watching for your face in the crowd
Without you I keep tumbling down
Wandering around this ghostly town
Draw me a new map
Take me back safe and sound
I didn't know you'd be leaving
That you'd be leaving us so soon
No I didn't know
I would not get to ask you
All I wanted to know
I miss you more than I can
I miss you more than I can say
I miss you more than I can
I miss you more than I can say
I didn't know you'd be leaving
You'd be leaving us so soon
No I didn't know
I would not get to ask you
All I wanted to know
I didn't know you'd be leaving
You'd be leaving us so soon
No I didn't know
I would not get to ask you
All I wanted to know
I didn't know
I didn't know
I didn't know
I didn't know
I didn't know
